About the Library
|
The Robert D. Clark Library is a collection of over 1500 books and
journals from a wide array of disciplines. Almost entirely donated by
students and alums, it reflects the unique character of the Clark
Honors College curriculum and culture. As well as these materials, the
collection also includes an archive of the intellectual output of
honors college students, from the CHC Creative Arts Journal to every
thesis written and defended at the college.

| In recent years, the library has undergone a series of significant
developments. Thanks to alumni donations, new bookcases and lighting
were purchased to better protect the library's collection, and make
the space more pleasant and inviting for students. In the summer of
2003, the book collection was integrated into a library of congress
call number system, helping to make it more organized and useful to
students. In addition, this past summer, the entire thesis collection
was entered into a database, which will be used to add the work of
Clark Honors College students to the Scholar's Bank project at
Knight Library. Students will now be able to search past theses by
subject, title, author, year, or keyword, and utilize these works in
their own scholarly research. |
| The resources of the R. D. Clark Honors College Library are open to
all honors college students, faculty, alumni and the U of O community
at large. |
